The Entrance Mat Is Your Office’s Front Line Dirt Defender

Here’s a fun fact. According to studies conducted by the World Cleaning Association, more than 80% of all dirt affecting facilities enters via foot traffic – on the soles of your workers and customers shoes. One simple way to reduce the amount of dirt and contaminants entering your workplace is to place an entrance mat at all your entrances.

While this won’t remove the need for office cleaning it will reduce the amount of debris being tramped into your workplace and therefore make it a healthier and cleaner place to work. Here are the clear benefits of installing welcome mats at all your entrances besides the obvious one of reducing dirt.

Rain no longer becomes an issue. Entrance mats encourage visitors to wipe their shoes prior to entering, thereby reducing the instances of water and mud being transported into your dry areas.

While being useful, they also serve as a feature. Entrance mat’s don’t have to be dull and boring, you can use them to accentuate your brand, match your colour schemes and even carry subtle advertising messages.

Reduces slippage risks. Strategically placed mats can help prevent and reduce the instances of slipping. Some business and industries are more prone to the risk of slippage than others, but any action taken to improve safety is a positive one.

Reduce Floor Damage. There’s no higher foot traffic area than an entrance and high foot traffic will result in wear and tear. Mats protect your floors as well as trap dirt.

Some mats can actually kill bacteria. There is a process where some mats can be infused with microbe combating power. Not only will this help keep your place looking clean it will rid your workplace of many of those nasty organisms that can cause genuine health concerns.

Presentation as well as occupational health and safety issues should be at the forefront of all business owner’s minds. Man thousands of dollars are spent on maintaining a clean business. Prevention is always better than cure and to that end, a simple low cost investment in some sturdy welcome mats is going to pay for itself many times over – as these mats act as your businesses first line of defence against dirt, mud and dangerous micro-organisms.

They are friendly, reliable, trustworthy, passionate about their work. Our office looks, smells and feels clean since we have changed to Envy Cleaning Solutions. The best part is when we use the washroom we know they have been cleaned and disinfected as they put toilet seals on the toilets and little hand soaps on the sinks. They use clean cloths and mops all colour coded and the fragrances used smell good enough to eat. I believe they will start a new generation of cleaners, young and full of energy. Great job guys we are very happy with your services. Keep up the good work.

We are unashamed clean freaks and so we were pleasantly surprised after Chris’ team’s clean. Fast forward 9 months and the standard hasn’t slipped – they still deliver a thorough clean each week. Highly recommended!

Before Envy Cleaning Solutions, we had the worst luck finding office cleaners. Finally we found a company that actually delivers what they promise! From our first meeting I was instantly impressed, and the level of cleaning was nothing less than perfect. The staff are friendly, efficient and nothing is a hassle. So impressed, and would highly recommend these guys to anyone!

“I have had my house cleaned by the same cleaners for over a year. I decided to give Envy cleaning solutions a go and do not regret my decision. My house definitely feels cleaner, looks cleaner and smells cleaner after they completed the work last week. They even added some little touches like leaving some little guest soaps, blue cleaning liquid in the toilet and hygienic bands on the toilet seats. I would highly recommend Envy cleaning solutions and look forward to them cleaning my house.”
